Baking Workshop

Saturday,8th February 2025

9.45am – 3.30pm

At the Edinburgh New Town Cookery School we know how popular baking is and so we have devised this one day baking workshop for people who already have some baking skills but would like to try some more advanced techniques . On this course many skills and types of recipes are covered from using yeast to making delicious cakes, biscuits and colourful macaroons.

The day starts at 9.45am with coffee or tea and a short demonstration of some of the skills you will learn. After a morning cooking you will break for lunch with a glass of wine and continue cooking in the afternoon before packing up your bakes to take home and enjoy!

The recipes that may be covered on this course are:

Chelsea Buns

Coloured Macaroons

Hazelnut Sables

French Madeleines

“I really did have a brilliant day on Saturday! I haven’t stopped talking about it since and my family and friends were over the moon with their homemade goodies and I can’t wait to make my next batch of Macaroons!!!!  I think the set up you have is amazing and not one person left here on Saturday without a smile on their face which must make your job immensely satisfying.” – Sara
